The BIG Problem With 99.9% of Vitamins On The Market... (And How To Fix It) ๐ŸŽ๏ธ ๐Ÿ€

Get OFF the vitamin struggle bus ๐ŸšŒ๐Ÿ’Š and into the fast lane! ๐ŸŽ๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ

Hey brother,

What if I told you... that the 99.9% of vitamins/supplements out there... are actually useless?

You can be like Jimmy hereโ€ฆ but SMARTER with Methylated vitamins. ๐Ÿ’Š

Or sometimes even worse...

...downright dangerous?

Sounds crazy, right?

Well, it's true. And here's why... [2]

You see, most "normal" vitamins sold in stores today... are unusable by the body without further processing.

It's like putting diesel gas โ›ฝ in a Ferrari built for premium high-octane fuel. The engine will sputter and stall out. โš™๏ธ ๐Ÿ’จ

Or like Shaq trying to sink a 3-pointer ๐Ÿ€ when he's built for dominating the paint. It just doesn't work. [5]

The same is true for vitamins. When you take "normal" B-vitamins, folate, or other nutrients... your body's enzymes have to work overtime โฐ... to convert them into bioavailable forms it can actually use.

It's a nutritional air-ball ๐Ÿ€ that rims out and lands in the cheap seats. ๐Ÿช‘

But there's one "super vitamin" that changes the game... [3]

Methylated Vitamins: The F1 Racer ๐ŸŽ๏ธ of Nutrition

Think of methylated vitamins like a finely-tuned F1 race car ๐ŸŽ๏ธ... built for high performance from the ground up. They come "pre-converted" into their active, bioavailable forms. So your body can use them immediately for energy, metabolism, brain power, and more. ๐Ÿ’ช ๐Ÿง 

In other words - it's nothing but net! ๐Ÿ€

Swish! ๐Ÿซณ

Studies show that taking methylated B-vitamins can boost energy levels by 35.7%... and increase brain function by 21.9% compared to regular vitamins [1].

The ideal dosage is:

  • 1000 mcg of methylfolate

  • 1000 mcg of methylcobalamin (B12)

  • 25 mg of B6

per day, according to experts [2].

So if you want to upgrade your body's engine ๐Ÿš— to run on cleaner, more efficient fuel โ›ฝ...

...and sink clutch 3's ๐Ÿ€ for your health & vitality...

...then methylated vitamins are the ultimate cheat code. ๐ŸŽฎ [1] [4]
